If you are happy with the coin and the price you paid then don't worry about it. ☺️

yeah guys I agree, thanks for the input as always 👍

Being a made up set might make sense as I found this too (the coin envelope was empty and I was hoping I hadn't lost it but it might be in here)! 

Also possibly of interest are a couple of newspaper clippings he had.
Here's one that's a snapshot of the time
 
 

Some time ago, a few years before he passed away during the first covid wave at 96 years old (he was playing golf six months before!) I received a collection of coins from my grandad. He didn't tell me much about them at all other than that he enjoyed collecting and ordering them. As well as these there are lots, and lots of others I may have questions about but these are the boxed ones, some of which contain gold coins so if it's okay I'll post them here and ask later on the silver forum about the other peculiar individual silver ones he had (as well as loads of the old silver half crowns, sixpences and all sorts of other stuff). 

Any comments, advice etc on any of them are welcomed, even if it turns out some are copies, not collectable, junk etc. I won't take offence. I have just started going through them and find them fascinating. Looking to do a bit of collecting and stacking after reading up on it all and am looking forward to the journey!

There are a lot so I have created a shared an imgur photos album and have linked the main overhead shots of these selected coins/sets here as an overview. Can take more pics of reverses etc if it helps!  

Here is a link to the shared album with some shots of each set. https://imgur.com/a/drDpW5u


Thanks!

I say cleaned. hairlines, uneven colour. There's a green spot on the shield also, which might be the remnents of pvc that's been cleaned off. - just my take on the pics

🇫🇷 France 5 Francs 1854-A (Paris) – Napoleon III – Reeded Edge – NGC MS65
A sublime example for this type and variety. Sharply struck, borderline proof-like, and most deserving of the gem uncirculated grade (MS65) assigned by NGC.
Only seven in MS65 and four finer which reside in MS65+ and MS66 respectively, the latter of which marks top population for the type and variety and the only one to be auctioned achieving $2,160 USD (circa £1,700 GBP).

🇯🇵 Japan 2 Bu and 2 Shu Set – Last Coins of the Samurai
For sale here is a lot of four gold coins from the final era of the Japanese Samurai. Each of these coins are cast from an alloy of gold and silver known as electrum and were produced at various points throughout the 1800's prior to the abolition of the Samurai class during the Meiji era.
Included in this lot are four coins, two having face values of 2 Bu and the other two with face values of 2 Shu. There are four different types in this lot and their respective details are as follows:
🏯 Japan 2 Bu "Ansei Nibukin" ND (1856-1860) – Cast from 5.62 grams of electrum comprised of approximately 20% gold and 80% silver. There are around 1.124 grams of pure gold in this coin.
🎌 Japan 2 Bu "Meiji" (Edo Mint) ND (1868-1869) – Cast from 3 grams of electrum comprised of approximately 22% gold and 78% silver. There are around 0.66 grams of pure gold in this coin.
🏯 Japan 2 Shu "Tenpō Nishukin" ND (1832-1858) – Cast from 1.64 grams of electrum comprised of approximately 30% gold and 70% silver. There are around 0.492 grams of pure gold in this coin.
🎌 Japan 2 Shu "Man'en Nishukin" (ND 1860-1869) – Cast from 0.75 grams of electrum comprised of approximately 23% gold and 77% silver. There are around 0.173 grams of pure gold in this coin.
Each of the above coins were cast within a range of years based on the period in which they were cast and left undated, hence the 'ND' ('no date') designation. All four will come in Quadrum capsules which have been meticulously labeled with the relevant information and KM number for each type.
These types of coin are often referred to as 'shogunate' coinage as they were largely used and hoarded by Japan's ruling military Samurai class. The use of larger percentages of silver than gold in these coins allowed the face value to be kept low, while the gold was seen as a way of the coins always holding value regardless of economic circumstance. It was for these reasons that they were often hoarded by the shogunate, particularly towards their abolition with the end of the feudal period in Japan and the start of the imperial Meiji Restoration.
The two example photographs show these coins hidden within the handle of a samurai sword.
You simply won't find another lot like this at this price point.
Sale price is £450 including fully-insured posted to mainland UK and Northern Ireland.
Payment via bank transfer to UK business bank account.
